A Davis

I live with my mom, grandma, and little brothers. My dad lives in Aspen, Colorado. My oldest brother is graduating this year but for now he lives across the street at my aunts house.

I don't really have any hobbies. I don't really do any sports either.

I have two cats and a ferret.

My favorite color is purple and I don't really have a favorite food. I like animals but thats about it.

I would compare myself to an owl because I perfer night to day.

Some of my best friends are Marissa, Kadie, and Hollie.

Tawny Owl

​ Animal Adaptations of Deciduous Forests:

• Some animals hibernate when winter comes.(http://www.kidcyber.com.au/topics/biomeforest.htm)
• Some store food for winter.(http://www.kidcyber.com.au/topics/biomeforest.htm)
• The animals also migrate.(http://www.buzzle.com/articles/deciduous-forest-animals.html)

• Animals grow thick coats of fur to protect them in the winter.(http://www.fossweb.com/popecoweb/ecoregion/deciduous_forest/)

Plant Adaptations of Deciduous Forests:

• Most of the trees drop thier leaves in the fall.(http://www.mbgnet.net/bioplants/adapt.html)
• Trees have thick bark to protect against cold winters.(http://www.mbgnet.net/bioplants/adapt.html)
• Trees have broad, light weight that capture sunlight easier.(http://www.cotf.edu/ete/modules/msese/earthsysflr/dforestP.html)
• Wild flowers grow on the forest floor in early spring to get sunlight before the trees leaf out.(http://www.mbgnet.net/bioplants/adapt.html)

Climate of Deciduous Forests:

• The average temperature is 50 degrees F.(http://ths.sps.lane.edu/biomes/deciduous3/deciduous3.html#Climate)
• The average amount of rainfall a year is 30-60in.(http://ths.sps.lane.edu/biomes/deciduous3/deciduous3.html#Climate)
• Soil is fertile, enriched with decaying litter. ( http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/glossary/gloss5/biome/forests.html#temperate)
• Canopy is moderately dense and allows light to penetrate.(http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/glossary/gloss5/biome/forests.html#temperate)
